Do Not Track

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a web browser setting that requests that a web application disable its tracking of an individual user. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser, your browser sends a special signal to websites, analytics companies, ad networks, plug in providers, and other web services you encounter while browsing to stop tracking your activity. Various third parties are developing or have developed signals or other mechanisms for the expression of consumer choice regarding the collection of information about an individual consumer’s online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services (e.g., browser do not track signals), but there is no universally agreed upon standard for what an organization should do when it detects a DNT signal. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to these signals or other mechanisms. You can learn more about Do Not Track here.

BBJ La Tavola will retain your Personal Information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Notice.

All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our third-party data storage providers.

We utilize the following criteria to determine the length of time for which we retain Personal Information:

To exercise any of these rights, you may make a request to confirm, access, correct, delete, obtain a copy, or opt-out of the processing of your Personal Data for targeting advertising, sale, or profiling by using this link or contacting us using the information in the Contact Us section below.

Right to Opt Out

You may have the right to opt out of the processing of your Personal Data for purposes of (i) targeted advertising, (ii) the sale of Personal Data, or (iii) profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning the consumer. To exercise your right, please click on this link on the bottom of the webpage where your information is being collected.

Opt-Out Preference Signals

Some browsers and browser extensions support opt-out preference signals such as the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating your choice to opt-out from certain types of data processing, including data sales. GPC is a web browser-level setting, maintained by either a browser or a browser extension, that a user or privacy-focused technology can set. In certain regions, when we detect such a signal, we treat opt-out preference signals as a valid request to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your Personal Information. When we detect such a signal, we will apply it without requiring additional steps from you.

Opt-out preference signals generally apply to the specific browser or device from which the signal is sent. If you are logged into a consumer account with us, we may, where required by law and technically feasible, associate the signal with your account so that it applies more broadly. Otherwise, the signal may need to be enabled separately on each browser or device.

You may also exercise your right to opt out through other methods described in this Notice, including designated opt-out links or account settings, where available.

Appeals of Our Decisions

In some jurisdictions, you may appeal to us if we refuse to take action on your exercise of certain choices described above. In order to appeal such a refusal, please contact us using the information in the Contact Us section below with the subject line “Appeal of Refusal to Take Action on Privacy Request” and provide the relevant information in the email.

If we decline to take action on any request you make, we will provide you with the information required by the applicable law where you live. This may include an explanation of why we declined your request, information on how to appeal our decision, and/or how to make a complaint to your state Attorney General.

16.Your Rights Under the General Data Protection Regulation

This section of the Notice applies if you are a data subject who resides or is located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). We adopt this section to comply with European privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Any terms defined in the GDPR have the same meaning when used in this section.

Under applicable law, we are considered the “data controller” of the Personal Information we handle under this Notice. In other words, we are responsible for deciding how to collect, use and disclose this information, subject to applicable law.

We want to ensure that the Personal Information we possess is always accurate and therefore we encourage you to update your information in your own account in case any changes have occurred. We have listed below the rights that you may be able to exercise in respect of the processing of your Personal Information, subject to applicable law. We take reasonable steps to ensure that the Personal Information that we process is limited to the Personal Information that are required in connection with the purposes set out in this Notice.

If you are a resident of or located within the EEA, you have certain data protection rights. These rights include:

  • The right to access, update or delete the information we have collected from you.
  • The right of rectification. You have the right to have your information rectified if that information is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • The right to object. You have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Information.

  • The right to withdraw consent. You also have the right to withdraw your consent at any time where we relied on your consent to process your Personal Information.

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information

We rely on the following legal bases for processing your Personal Information:

  • Contract: To conclude or perform a contract with you; for example: to manage and fulfill orders, facilitate delivery, and to provide other Services; to manage our accounts and records; to handle your inquiries and requests; and when you apply for employment through our Site, processing of your contact details and data about your employment history and education (as needed to evaluate your job application, to conduct job interviews, and as is otherwise needed for recruitment) is necessary to respond to your request to process your application for employment. If you do not provide this data, we will not be able to process the application that you send through our Site.
  • Legitimate Interests: When we process your Personal Information for our legitimate interests, we make sure to consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection laws. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your Personal Information for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you unless we have your consent or those activities are otherwise required or permitted to by law. You have the right to object to processing that is based on our legitimate interests, as further described below. Examples of legitimate interests include: to respond to your customer service inquiries and requests for information; to maintain, improve, and analyze our Site and Services we offer; to conduct marketing activities; to detect, prevent, or investigate security breaches or fraud; and to facilitate the functionality of our Site.
  • Legal Compliance: To comply with our legal obligations; for example: to maintain appropriate records for internal administrative purposes and as required by applicable law.
  • Consent: We will send you information by email on our Services or other promotions only with your consent or if you otherwise opt-in to receiving those communications. If you do not provide us with your consent to the processing of your Personal Information for this purpose, we will not send you this information. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time as described below.

How to Exercise Your Rights Under the GDPR

If applicable, you may exercise any of your rights under the GDPR by submitting a verifiable data subject request to us by using the contact details below. You may make a request related to your Personal Information or on behalf of someone for which you have authorization. You must include your full name, email address, and attest to the fact that you are a citizen or resident of the EEA by including your country of citizenship or residence in your request. We may require you to confirm your identity and/or legal standing for the request as well as your residency in the EEA to obtain the information. We will respond to your request within 30 days or let you know if we need additional time.

Please note that we will ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests, and we may deny your request if we are unable to verify your identity or authority to make the request.

Should you wish to raise a concern about our use of your data (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local supervisory authority; however, we hope that we can assist with any queries or concerns you may have about our use of your Personal Information first by contacting us using the information in the Contact Us section below.

17.Your Rights Under the UK GDPR

If you are based in the United Kingdom, the following provisions also apply:

If we share your Personal Data within BBJ La Tavola or with third parties located outside the United Kingdom, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to guarantee the continued protection of your Personal Data, such as by entering into the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or the International Data Transfer Addendum to the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, adopted by the UK Government under section 119A of the Data Protection Act 2018.

You have the same data subject rights as those for the EU listed above, except that references to the “GDPR” should be read as references to the “UK GDPR” and complaints should be filed with the UK supervisory authority, the Information Commissioner’s Office.
